Right now libdb5.1-dev gets a bonus point for being installed and being installable/upgradable, but it won't get that any longer if it is an obsolete package (no installation candidate available any more), so libdb5.3-dev might win the "fight" instead of making a tie. I think the current scores of -1 are the result of 5.1: priority:extra = -2 installed,installable = +1 rdepends: 0 ==> -1 5.3: priority:extra = -2 installed,installable = 0 rdepends: +1 ==> -1 Andreas -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-devel-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
